I agree! It's so important not to overwhelm our children with too many activities. Keeping things varied certainly helps, especially if we want our kids to develop well-rounded personalities and skills.
We try to focus on one fun, extra-curricular activity at a time (although ideally something with an element of nature or the outdoors!). We feel this gives the space and opportunity for them to really enjoy and embrace it without being burnt out by too many commitments. We also leave plenty of room for free, unscheduled time which, as you say, is crucial for keeping things fun!
It's great to hear how others approach this.
